Best I’ve owned in their price range.
Having two teenagers in the house that lose or damage things frequently, it’s hard to justify buying premium products sometimes. Even when it’s not for the kids, you tend to go budget because of how often things get “borrowed” without asking. So when I saw how great the reviews were on various tech sites for all of Nothing’s earbud offerings, these absolutely grabbed my attention.I’ll start with the case. Something about the square shape with its rounded corners just feels right in the hand, far better than the common rectangular casket shape favored by many budget brands. It also allows for a variety of grips when accessing the Smart Dial. The dial itself is fun to fidget with, even when disabled, but is also very functional if you’re the kind of person that finds yourself skipping around in playlists or changing the volume frequently. And since the dial is customizable in Nothing’s “Nothing X” app, you can configure it in a way that makes sense to you so it won’t likely be a “use it once and then forget about it” feature. The matte finish is feels and looks nice, especially to someone like me who thinks glossy plastic looks a little tacky, but it does take fingerprints very easily. It’s very lightweight which I have mixed feelings about since that implies they could have installed a larger or more dense battery pack but, since I’ve yet to run it dry as is, I’m probably just being nitpicky.Now for the buds themselves. They’re a little chunky, but that’s common at this price point, and it doesn’t make them uncomfortable at all. The multiple microphones on each bud pick are reasonably clear and do a fair job canceling unwanted noise, though I did find that in their passthrough noise cancelling mode they had trouble picking up something about my daughter’s vocal range but it only happens when I’m talking to her. The noise cancelling is pretty solid. They won’t block out extremely loud sounds like power tools, but no Active Noise Cancelling earbud/headphone should given that ANC works by transmitting an interference wave and that signal being too strong could just as easily damage your hearing as the noise you’re hoping to block out; that’s more of a task for ear protection brands like ISOtunes. The DIRAC feature must be working pretty well, because I’ve not messed with the EQ since getting them and everything I’ve listened to with them (gaming, classic rock, heavy industrial, mopey goth rock, Indigenous punk, 80s new wave, movies, etc) still manages to sound well balanced for the media. The surround sound feature isn’t something most people will really notice or have a use for and likely should be turned off to save battery, but I do find that if I wear them while gaming on my PC with Dolby Atmos enabled turning it on does improve the effect (and combined with the ANC, it’s super immersive). The default bass is pretty solid and while I do notice a subtle difference with the bass boosting feature enabled, it’s not significant enough to justify the extra battery drain and it’s not all that necessary anyway. Like the Smart Dial, the touch functions on the buds are customizable and pretty responsive but I do find myself preferring to the more tactile dial.The software situation is a mixed bag. There are a lot of features here that are controlled via software. The phone app is great and made pairing the headset, customizing the controls, and setting the sound enhancing features a breeze. If I only used them with my phone, that would be fine. I also like to use them with my PC sometimes (I have loud neighbors and the ANC helps block them out when I’m trying to game or work on something.) and I’m baffled by their decision to abandon a dedicated PC app for a web based one that doesn’t function across all browsers and, in my experience, has yet to work with these buds despite listing them as compatible.

A ton of features, great audio quality, very nice app. Punches well above its weight class.
Taken with a grain of salt, since I’ve been using them for a total of 30 minutes.Update – I’ve now worn them through 2 calls and all was well. No complaints from the other end, and my side was crystal clear. Comfort is good, and my longest session was 3 hours. No ear pain, and they stayed in my ears. Still have not used the case dial function. Oh yeah, after 3 hours of music play I put the buds back in the case and both buds were still at 83% battery.A couple minor weaknesses, but again, I keep in mind that they are sub $60 buds. The noise cancellation is wonky with loud noises (in my case Chainsaw and Circular saw). The pass through audio is not great, but I was able to have conversations with a few people at Lowes. This could be improved, but the price would go up.Music was still great.Original review:First song though them is All Night by Def Leppard from Euphoria. It has a lot of quasi variable sounds, a hint of soft rock rap, rock, acapella vocals, and vocals isolated with nothing but bass, good harmonies, both high and low tones. Normally I drive a new set of buds to max volume, but these approached uncomfortable at 3/4 volume, which is also where the “Ear Damage” warning pops up. I got to *80% volume and backed off (very impressive).They only have 3 tip options, SML, and are factory fitted with M. I switched to the Large and get good isolation. For this sub $60 purchase price I did not expect a hearing test from the app, and one does not exist, but it does have a fit test under the Device Settings. Also under the Device Settings is the Dual Connection option, which by default is set to off. If you switch to dual connection, the buds have to reboot, so don’t do this if you’re in the middle of listening to a song or on a phone call.Surprisingly, the app and buds have a Find My Earbuds option – unheard of for this price.The buds sound fantastic with Spacial Audio off, but there is a noticable enhancement when you enable Spacial Audio. I like both outputs equally, and thing for those who come from or are in the sound production world, my guess is they will prefer the perception of a pre and post mixed feel. Spacial off tends to be a lot more of a natural recording, and Spacial sounds like a producer got a low impact opportunity to add some effects, but not over powering. Another effect of Spacial is a slight volume boost.I’ve not yet tried the case dial, and while cool, I don’t see a personal application, but still cool as a remote control for your buds, without the need to touch the buds or use the phone app.The case is a little larger than my Soundcore Space A40’s, but I like the square shape. I also bought a matching TPU case so I’d not scratch up the case while in my pocket.There are only two things I poke at. There is no USB-C cable included (not a big deal – by now everyone has a dozen or more). The second is a personal preference, and that is earbud charge % display, and that it only shows charge drop in 5% increments, i.e. 100%, 95%, 90% etc.I am not yet able to speak to call quality, but that will happen soon I hope.So far I’m sticking with the Euphoria album, but I can’t wait to hear Drive by The Cars, both for vocal and instrumental clarity.
